  1. An active circuit would get rid of a hum induced in the cable, but if the hum is induced in the pickups there is nothing an active circuit can do about it. If I sit by my computers with one of my basses with the nordy singles, I get a hum, but can get rid of it by just tilting the bass at another angle.
  2. If you used a compressor before it you would remove the transients you need for the envelope of some of the patches I would assume.
  3. Bought a polytune mini from Ian and it was all done and posted in minutes, all good, thanks!
  4. Series parallel switching is pretty much the same whether active or passive, so any circuit will do it. Its easy to do with a dpdt switch. Variable series / parallel doesn't really make sense
  5. Well, if it was 81, 82 or 83 I could tell you. Maybe not 83
  6. Yeh, it was 16 bars so I could get all the variations Yes, that is the bit I couldn't find, the export audio part! TBH - I should be doing this in the MPC-10 which is obviously designed for it, but I am not used to 'its' way of doing things, seems recycle copies heavily from the MPC workflow, which is the bit I haven't got used to yet. Thanks.
  7. I had that problem with one group (different song). Ultimately I just couldn't play it wrong! New side project does Dani California with different vocal timing in the chorus and it throws me right out - I have done it in the last 3 groups, probably played it north of 300 times in that time. Luckily I have a P16, so I just turn the vocals off for that track!
  8. Just got Recycle (its free), and tried it with a drum pattern. When you select export to midi, it complains there are too many slices and exports 91, but the midi is an odd ascending scale!
  9. Excelent, that is on my 'buy second hand when someone gets bored of it' list!
  10. For me, I get any tone control how it would sound without any preamp into a perfect amp with a short cable. I just want the buffer of the preamp
  11. A custom Prohaszka Guitars build if you have facebook it is here (actually, it is here whether you have facebook or not). https://www.facebook.com/reel/1774320443359970
  12. No, the worst I get will be an eye roll or 'another one?' a 'thats ugly' - the basses are mostly paid for by my gigging money, so it is largely self supported, and most of the basses hang on various walls.
  13. But at least it was a good idea to have Olivia rodrego on the Legends slot And wasn't Velvet Sundown set good?
  14. So where do you get a HW one? I have always heard about them but they seem like noone knows where they come from!
  15. I do like some of her stuff, but I thought her glastonbury performance of "you ought to know" was weak, the rest was sort of ok. Wait until you hear rod
  16. * in 2001, since then it is about the 7th. Strange that it is now half the size that it was. what happened? Did it get too big for itself?
  17. In which case its easy, but for me it was my favourite group, so the change is not something I can put up with. Same reason I didn't go to see the last genesis gig.
  18. Honestly I couldn't point to one Maroon 5 song, I just noticed in the list of most albums sold, they were above rod stewart (and fleetwood mac - colour me surprised).
  19. I suspect the EMG pickups are passive going to a basic preamp, or maybe that has been taken out (or bypassed). Is there a battery? Is it a battery with any charge in it?
  20. No, but if you walked into a pub today and heard him, you would laugh and walk out and wonder why they were paying him, you would only stay because he was someone, back in the day, not because of how he is now. I don't know if him selling slightly more records than Nicki Minaj and slighly fewer than Maroon 5 means that he is someone to put on the main stage at a place like glastonbury, especially when most of those records were decades ago. I was never a fan of 'aren't they doing well considering'. You get it a lot, for a lot of artists, I remember the cindi lauper one last time, 'oh she is doing well considering', no, she was f'ing terrible. Maybe it is because I take a performance on merit, not 'considering'. I am a huge rush fan and had a chance to see them at their final tour, but didn't, because Geddy Lee simply can't sing his stuff any more, so I am better off listing to the record, rather than going and thinking 'oh they did well considering'.
  21. Assuming it is a Spector Legend from your description. Almost certainly the knobs are volume, pan, bass and treble. generally volume at the front and pan closest to the pickups, but sometimes spector change that for a laugh. bass and treble should be reasonably apparent.
  22. Ah, like a participation award. That's what the pyramid stage is used for now! The drummers dad is over 80, he likes getting up for a sing, he's not great but he has a go and people seem to enjoy it, maybe I can see if we can get him booked for Glastonbury next time
  23. He could have tried singing in tune as well - works for some people!
  24. German never was a good language for singing in was it!
